U-Turn Audio unveils second generation of Orbit Turntable collection

Available in five colours and two hardwood options.

U-Turn Audio has announced a refresh of their Orbit Turntable collection.

The second generation of the Orbit series sees the Orbit Basic, Plus, Special and Custom updated with a range of new features. Each turntable has a new OA3 tonearm that claims “a high-level of musical detail” and a new grooved platter design. The Orbit Special and Custom also have a new electronic speed control.

The turntable comes in five colours–black, white., green, blue and red–and two hardwood options. Take a look at the Orbit Special below.

“Our mission is to make great analog audio more accessible,” says Bob Hertig, U-Turn Audio co-founder and Orbit designer. ”Over the last decade, we’ve built and shipped hundreds of thousands of Orbits across North America and have earned a reputation for high-level performance and quality craftsmanship that doesn’t break the bank.

“This new generation of Orbit represents a decade of experience, learning, and turntable development. We were able to take something that was already great and make it even better.”

The Orbit Basic retails at $249 (£197), the Orbit Plus at $399 (£315) and the Orbit Special at $549 (£434). The Orbit Custom starts at $249 (£197). Find out more here.
